A Few Things to Consider When Shopping for a Kitchen TV
When you're ready to choose a TV for the kitchen there are a few things to think about:Counter Top Kitchen Televisions
Counter top televisions offer the ease of simply opening the box and setting the television up on the counter. No messy installation, no tools, and no holes in the cabinets.These models also offer portability. They can be moved to a different location on the counter at a moments notice or to another room if a guest arrives.
A TV for the kitchen is best designed specifically for such use so that they provide better resistence to spills and an improved tolerance of the heat and humidity present in a kitchen environment that can damage typical televisions.

Under Cabinet Kitchen Televisions
An under cabinet TV for the kitchen saves even more space than their countertop cousins conserving on needed work space. They also offer added protection because they are mounted up and away from busy counters making them nearly immune to spills and the potential of being hit or unintentionally knocked over.Installation is not too complex but does require some tools and time. A mounted TV of course is also less readily relocated.

We are planning to buy two televisions, a 42 inch for the bed room, and a 50 inch for the big music room. Your lens however has reminded me that I spend most of my time in the kitchen, and that's where I do most of my television watching. So why are we buying a new television for every room but the kitchen? Have to check with the spousal unit to see who's making the decisions around here. Loved the lens.

Never heard of a TV in the fridge before. Is that for watching the really cool shows?
Great lens!

I have a TV in the kitchen - very handy. I also find that our laptop computer is very handy in the kitchen. I use it to find recipes. (So much more efficient than flipping through cookbooks.) I still buy cookbooks though.
Thanks for visiting me often, I appreciate the positive comments. 5 stars, fan already, favorite and lensrolled.
